Nas N.I.*.*.E.R. Lyrics
[Chorus:]
They say we N — I - Double G — E — R We - are - much more,
Still we choose to ignore, The obvious.
Man this history don’t acknowledge us,
We was scholars long before colleges.
They say we N — I - Double G — E — R We - are - much more,
But still we choose to ignore, The obvious. We are the slave and the master, What you looking for? You the question and the answer.
[Verse 1:]
We trust no black leaders, Use the stove to heat us,
Powder eggs and government cheeses, The calendar was Martin,
JFK, & Jesus, Gotta be fresh Go to school with fly sneakers. Schools with outdated books, We are the forgotten,
Summers coolin’ off by the fire hydrant. Yeah I’m from
the ghetto, Where old black women talk about they sugar
level, It’s not unusual, To see photos of dead homies’
funerals, Aluminum foil on t.v. antennas Little TV sit on
top the big TV eatin TV dinners, Girls die they hair with
kool-aid, They gave us lemons we made lemonade, But this nigga’s paid, Ancestry of slaves, Descendant of Kings It’s
necessary I, Bling, Puts rings on every thing Where
Timbs on every scene.
[Chorus]
They say we N — I - Double G — E — R We - are - much more,
Still we choose to ignore, The obvious.
Man this history don’t acknowledge us,
We was scholars long before colleges.
They say we N — I - Double G — E — R We - are - much more,
But still we choose to ignore, The obvious. We are the slave and the master, What you looking for? You the question and the answer.
[Verse 2:]
Do I mean it like a slave master? NIGGER! No!
I’m gangsta Gotta eat rappers! My abbreviation
Was young when I caught the cases, That should mean
the court could see my changes Take off the bracelets,
Savage when broke, Smoke sour diesel Need no Bo-flex
My chest still cut-up like a bag of dope, Thought
patterns consist of boss matters, Spit Moses’
“Lost Commandments” Like a gross sandwich out my
mouth. Toast to government cameras Peepin us every
week I must have my cars homes & phones Squeaked for
bugs, But this is what I was dreamin of, Between
cutting hard coke with new razors Slicing my fingers
up, They use to string us up, We wanted everything,
But the one bringing us cake be the snakes Like
the… Like the New Jack City wedding scene No
time for mistakes trying to get it like [?]
[Chorus]
They say we N — I - Double G — E — R We - are - much more,
Still we choose to ignore, The obvious.
Man this history don’t acknowledge us,
We was scholars long before colleges.
They say we N — I - Double G — E — R We - are - much more,
But still we choose to ignore, The obvious. We are the slave and the master, What you looking for? You the question and the answer.
[Verse 3:]
My nig… Whattup my nig?
People afraid of criticism But I
always put myself in a sacrificial position!
They been know I ain’t just rappin for fame,
I got my old homie [?] the father asking for change!
Yep! I’d give this cash up This paper don’t matter
They seen me from skinny to fatter When I rap about
war, They got the tendency to scatter, They ain’t
my backup no more, So now my enemies are at my front
door, Cause any time we mention Our condition,
our history or existence, They calling it reverse racism,
Still till today the street’s torn, My brother Jungle
always have a seat for ‘em Not behind me - beside me
You’ll always know where to find me, They say the close
ones will hurt you, So let’s keep a small circle, On the
road to riches, and diamond rings In the land of the blind
The man with one eye is the king.
[Chorus]
They say we N — I - Double G — E — R We - are - much more,
Still we choose to ignore, The obvious.
Man this history don’t acknowledge us,
We was scholars long before colleges.
They say we N — I - Double G — E — R We - are - much more,
But still we choose to ignore, The obvious. We are the slave and the master, What you looking for? You the question and the answer.
